The league is:

Player Comments:
- "Luke and Andy met for the second time this week after having a friendly knock on Wednesday. We were late onto the court due to some very loud children being coached. The rain fell intermittently during the first set, and both players got off to a slow start. We traded breaks, before being moved to a different court at 4-4 in the first. The move invigorated both players and performance improved. Luke took a tight first set. The second set was characterized by Luke running down every ball, prompting Andy to curse his age. The sun came out for the end of the second set and Luke pulled through." -- Luke
Player Comments:
